Last week I felt a little like Homer Simpson every time a student brought in their creative project to wrap up our Hunger Games unit. I couldn't help drooling a little, and uttering, "Mmmmm...more cake!"
Yes, cake can be educational. Just like replicating the arena or a scene from the novel in a diorama, recreating it on a cake takes thought and creativity. Students have to brainstorm what edible objects they'll use to represent the scenery. I witnessed students rereading scenes to make sure they got the details exact. I overheard an argument about Peeta being hidden near the stream by Rue's body (which was further in the woods), and one student replied, "It's symbolic!" I love it.
Yes. Frosting. The final defense of English teachers everywhere...
Love these! They did such a great job that it is easy to tell what scenes they are depicting.
ReplyDeleteAs I read the blog I felt a tug on the heartstrings. it exhibits how much effort has been put into this.
